I and the Bird #50
Friday Ark #141
The Tangled Bank is coming up on Wednesday, 6 June, at the Behavioral Ecology Blog. Send those links in to me or host@tangledbank.net by Tuesday.
Welcome to the Fiftieth edition of I And The Bird. It's been a while since I last hosted an edition of this carnival (#19) and it has obviously grown a lot since then. With such diversity of posts, I decided it was impossible to categorize them, so they are presented here in the order I received them. So, to cut my unimportant intro short, let's dig in:
Grrrl of Living The Scientific Life reports on a conservation triumph story in The Return of the Rimatara Lory.
The Ridger of The Greenbelt took pictures of some goslings walking around looking like little feathered dinosaurs (post in two…
The Carnival Of Education: Week #121 is up on The Education Wonks
Carnival of Homeschooling, the Alaska edition, is up on About:Homeschooling
Carnival of the Blue:
World Ocean Day is June 8, and blogfish will host an ocean blog event. Please send links to some of your best recent work, and I'll post a list of links together with a brief comment.
This is a chance for all of you ocean bloggers out there to come together in one place. I've asked around, and there seems to be enough interest to call this a carnival, as the first installment in a regular (monthly) event. Dare we call it carnival of the blue?
Send your links to mpowell at oceanconservancy dot org, and I look forward to hearing from all of you ocean bloggers that I know,…
I And The Bird is not the only carnival coming soon. You should also send your submissions to Panta Rei, Mendel's Garden, Encephalon, Circus of the Spineless, Festival of the Trees, Oekologie and Gene Genie very soon...
You have only about a day and half to send me your entries for the 50th edition of the wonderful carnival I And The Bird. The deadline is tomorrow night, May 29th at 11:59pm EDT. E-mail: coturnix AT gmail DOT com
No, don't hate me…but it's more carnivals. I'm catching up on all this stuff that was sent to me.
Besides, it's a holiday weekend, right? You're going to be out there on the deck, tending the BBQ, with your laptop at hand for wireless browsing between the burger flipping, anyway, just like me. So sure, here's lots more reading.

Well, I'm exhausted, how about you? Time for a cold one and a picnic.
This is an open thread, so go ahead, tell us how…
This week, the creationist Ken Ham and his organization, Answers in Genesis, are practicing the Big Lie. They have spent tens of millions of dollars to create a glossy simulacrum of a museum, a slick imitation of a scientific enterprise veneered over long disproved religious fables, and they are gathering crowds and world-wide attention to the grand opening of their edifice of deceit. You can now take a photographic tour of the exhibits and see for yourself—it's not science at all, but merely a series of Bible stories dolled up in dioramas.
The blogosphere is also giving them some attention…
Philosophia Naturalis #10 is up on Daily Irreverence.
Friday Ark #140 is up on Modulator.
